So pleased we can announce this after a huge amount of effort. And of course delighted that placemaking, design and sustainability are centre stage. Thanks to all the internal and external people who helped in the drafting & the deep thinking before the drafting even started.

Large glazing is justified on views & lighting. Yet the reality is different for the occupants of those buildings. Apart from high a/c use, to prevent high solar gains & glare, blinds are fully drawn. Where are the views then? #climateresponsive design #shading #thermalcomfort

[MarialenaNikolopoulo @MarialenaNikol]

Glare, tall buildings and inappropriate materials for warm climates (Nicosia). We never learn… #microclimate #glare #outdoorcomfort

Months of backbreaking digging, weeding and planting is paying off. Great working with @LAlandscapes team too who built the main pond and bioswale 🙏.

Signs of #Spring @GroveParkSE12 #RingwayWoodlandGarden. Saplings we planted end of last year with help from @Burberry via @volunteering_uk are flourishing!! The buds on rowans are bursting open. Snakeshead fritillary nodding in the breeze @GroundworkLON @LondonInBloomUK @RHSBloom

[Kay Pallaris @MappingFutures]

@MarialenaNikol Absolutely. As should plastic plants! Bought real turf rolls recently and even that has a plastic mesh supposedly to hold it together. I’m pretty sure it didn’t when I’ve bought it in the past ☹️.
